Esquire Magazine Skull and Bones Article Ron Rosenbaum's 1977 Esquire Magazine Skull and Bones Article http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/esp_sociopol_skullbone... by Ron Rosenbaum Esquire Magazine September, 1977 from PrisonPlanet Website Esquire Magazine September, 1977 Take a look at the hulking sepulcher over there. Small wonder they call it a tomb. It’s the citadel of Skull and Bones , the most powerful of all secret societies in the strange Yale secret-society system. For nearly a century and a half, Skull and Bones has been the most influential secret society in the nation, and now it is one of the last. In an age in which it seems that all that could possibly be concealed about anything and anybody has been revealed, those blank tombstone walls could be holding the last secrets left in America. You could ask Averell Harriman whether there’s really a sarcophagus in the basement and whether he and young Henry Stimson and young Henry Luce (Time magazine) lay down naked in the coffin and spilled the secrets of their adolescent sex life to 14 fellow Bonesmen. You could ask Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart if there came a time in the year 1937 when he dressed up in a skeleton suit and howled wildly at an initiate in a red-velvet room inside the tomb. You could ask McGeorge Bundy if he wrestled naked in a mud pie as part of his initiation and how it compared with a later quagmire into which he so eagerly plunged. You could ask Bill Bundy or William F. Buckley, both of who went into the CIA after leaving Bones - or George Bush , who ran the CIA / President - whether their Skull and Bones experience was useful training for the clandestine trade. (“Spook,” the Yale slang for spy .) You could ask J. Richardson Dilworth , the Bonesman who now manages the Rockefeller fortune, just how wealthy the Bones society is and whether it’s true that each new initiate gets a no-strings gift of fifteen thousand dollars cash and guaranteed financial security for life. You could ask... but I think you get the idea. The lending lights of the Eastern establishment - in old-line investment banks (Brown Brothers Harriman pays Bone’s tax bill), in a blue-blood law firms (Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, for one), and particularly in the highest councils of the foreign-policy establishment - the people who have shaped America’s national character since it ceased being an undergraduate power, had their undergraduate character shaped in that crypt over there. Bonesman Henry Stimson , Secretary of War under F.D.R., a man at the heart of the heart of the American ruling class, called his experience in the tomb the most profound one in his entire education. But none of them will tell you a thing about it. They’ve sworn an oath never to reveal what goes on inside and they’re legendary for the lengths to which they’ll go to avoid prying interrogation. The mere mention of the words “skull and bones” in the presence of a true-blue Bonesman, such as Blackford Oakes, the fictional hero of Bill Buckley’s spy thriller, ‘Saving the Queen’, will cause him to “dutifully leave the room, as tradition prescribed.” 1 of 7 5/6/2012 12:59 AM Ron Rosenbaum's 1977 Esquire Magazine Skull and Bones Article http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/esp_sociopol_skullbone... I can trace my personal fascination with the mysterious goings-on in the sepulcher across the street to a spooky scene I witnessed on its shadowy steps late one April night eleven years ago. I was then a sophomore at Yale, living in Jonathan Edwards, the residential college (anglophile Yale name for dorm) built next to the Bones tomb. It was part of Jonathan Edwards folklore that on a April evening following “tap night” at Bones, if one could climb to the tower of Weir Hall, the odd castle that overlooks the Bones courtyard, one could hear strange cries and moans coming from the bowels of the tomb as the fifteen newly “tapped” members were put through what sounded like a harrowing ordeal. Returning alone to my room late at night, I would always cross the street rather than walk the sidewalk that passed right in front of Bones. Even at that safe distance, something about it made my skin crawl. But that night in April I wasn’t alone; a classmate and I were coming back from an all-night diner at about two in the morning. At the time, I knew little about the mysteries of Bones or any of the other huge windowless secret-society tombs that dominated with dark authority certain key-corners of the campus. They were nothing like conventional fraternities. No one lived in the tombs. Instead, every Thursday and Sunday night the best and the brightest on campus, the fifteen seniors in Skull and Bones and in the Scroll and Key , Book and Snake , Wolf’s Head , Berzelius , in all the seven secret societies, disappeared into their respective tombs and spent hours doing something - something they were sworn to secrecy about. And Bones, it was said was the most ritualistic and secretive of all. Even the very door to the Bones tomb, that huge triple-padlocked iron door, was never permitted to open in the presence of an outsider. All this was floating through my impressionable sophomore mind that night as my friend Mike and I approached the stone pylons guarding the entrance to Bones. Suddenly we froze at the sight of a strange thing lying on the steps. There in the gloom of the doorway on the top step was a long white object that looked like the thighbone of a large mammal. I remained frozen. Mike was more adventuresome: he walked right up to the steps and picked up the bone. I wanted to get out of there fast; I was certain we were being spied upon from a concealed window. Mike couldn’t decide what to do with the bone. He went up to the door and began examining the array of padlocks. Suddenly a bolt shot. The massive door began to swing open and something reached out at him from within. He grasped, terrified, and jumped back, but not before something clutched the bone, yanked it out of his hand and back into the darkness within. The door slammed shut with a clang that rang in our ears as we ran away. Recollected in tranquility, the dreamlike gothic moment seems to me an emblem of the strangeness I felt at being at Yale, at being given a brief glimpse of the mysterious workings of the inner temples of privilege but feeling emphatically shut out of the secret ceremonies within. I always felt irrelevant to the real purpose of the institution, which was from its missionary beginnings devoted to converting the idle progeny of the ruling class into morally serious leaders of the establishment. It is frequently in the tombs that conversions take place. NOVEMBER, 1976: SECURITY MEASURES It’s night and we’re back in front of the tomb, Mike and I, reinforced by nine years in the outside world, two skeptical women friends and a big dinner at Mory’s. And yet once again there is an odd, chilling encounter. We’re re-creating that first spooky moment. I’m standing in front of the stone pylons and Mike has walked up to stand against the door so we can estimate its height by his. 2 of 7 5/6/2012 12:59 AM Ron Rosenbaum's 1977 Esquire Magazine Skull and Bones Article http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/esp_sociopol_skullbone... Then we notice we’re being watched. A small red foreign car has pulled up on the sidewalk a few yards away from us. The driver has been watching us for some time. Then he gets out. He’s a tall, athletic looking guy, fairly young. He shuts the card door behind him and stands leaning against it, continuing to observe us. We try to act oblivious, continuing to sketch and measure. The guy finally walks over to us, “You seen Miles?” he asks. We look at each other. Could he think we’re actually Bones alumni, or is he testing us? Could “You seen Miles?” be some sort of password? “No,” we reply. “Haven’t seen Miles.” He nods and remains there. We decide we’ve done enough sketching and measuring and stroll off. “Look!” one of the women says as she turns and points back. “He just ran down the side steps to check the basement-door locks. He probably thought he caught us planning a break-in.” I found the episode intriguing. What it said to me was that Bones still cared about the security of its secrets. Trying to find out what goes on inside could be a challenge. And so it was that I set out this April to see just how secure those last secrets are. It was a task I took on not out of malice or sour grapes. I was not tapped for a secret society so I’m open to the latter charge, but I plead guilty only to the voyeurism of a mystery lover. I’d been working on a novel, a psychological thriller of sorts that involved the rites of Bones, and I thought it wouldn’t hurt to spend some time in New Haven during the week of tap night and initiation night, poking around and asking questions. You could call it espionage if you were so inclined, but I tried to play the game in a gentlemanly fashion: I would not directly ask a Bonesman to violate his sacred oath of secrecy.

Seeking to develop the next generation of Americanists, New Errands’ mission is both to provide a venue for the publication of important original scholarship by emerging young scholars and to provide a teaching resource for instructors of American Studies looking for exemplary work to use in the classroom. New Errands will be published semi-annually, after the end of each academic semester. The goal of this timetable will be to collect and publish essays produced during the previous term, so that they can be made available as quickly as possible for use in the following term. We encourage both self- submission by undergraduate students and nominated submissions by instructional faculty. They must have an American focus, but can employ a variety of disciplinary methods. Submissions can be emailed as Word documents to: [email protected]. Essays can be of any length, but they must have a research focus. Any visual images should be placed at the end of the manuscript, and tags should be placed in the text to indicate the intended placement of each image. Manuscripts should conform to MLA guidelines. Papers found in this volume were presented at the Undergraduate Roundtable of the Eastern American Studies Association Annual Conference in March of 2017.

    Yale University EliScholar – A Digital Platform for Scholarly Publishing at Yale Publications on Yale History Yale History 1-1961 Yale's Extracurricular & Social Organizations, 1780-1960 Loomis Havemeyer Follow this and additional works at: https://elischolar.library.yale.edu/yale_history_pubs r 1 YALE'S EXTRACURRICULAR & SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS Loomis Havemeyer January 1961 Foreword Since the eighteenth century there has grown up at Yale a vast number of societies, fraternities and clubs; students have always been great njoinersu. Some of these have lasted a long time and are impor- tant while others existed only a brief period and died, leaving, perhaps, only a name with no date available. In going through the old copies of the Banner the names of many of these latter appear only to be omitted in later issues and so we assume that they passed from the scene. A group might get together for some purpose, select a name, be recorded in the Banner, and then in a short time cease to exist. These we have not included for while they may have been important to the founders, they made no impression on the Yale scene. We have not in- cluded athletics or the preparatory school and state clubs that as a rule meet infrequently, perhaps for one dinner a year, and usually have an ephemeral existence. After months of research we have compiled a list of the more important extracurricular activities, giving, where possible, the date, when they first appeared and if they dropped out, the year. In some cases there are no adequate records and so we have resorted to ques- tion marks.

  • PRESENT at the CREATION” Constituting the New American Empire 1945–1950
    Chapter 4 “PRESENT AT THE CREATION” Constituting the New American Empire 1945–1950 In a sense the postwar years were a period of creation. (Dean Acheson, 1969) he dapper and witty Honorable Dean Acheson, a gentleman’s gentle- Tman and President Harry Truman’s secretary of state (1949–1953), held the highest positions in US diplomacy during and after World War II. The postwar years he refers to in the quotation above are roughly the fi ve years following the end of the war in 1945. They “were a period of cre- ation,” of fi nding the parts and fi tting them together in a colossal struc- tural project to constitute the postwar US social being. This chapter, then, explores the exercise of force to achieve constructive powers, specifi cally those creating the post-1945 iteration of American Empire. First, this chapter documents who did it; next it details the features of global human being as Acheson and his peers refl ected on it, in doing their constitution. This postwar human being, inhabited by a Bear that was a Leviathan (an oddity explained later), presented US elites with a men- acing hermeneutic puzzle. This puzzle, one of a political contradiction, is documented. The chapter goes on to show how the hermeneutic politics to resolve the puzzle engendered a series of public délires and institutions that constituted a novel social being—a three-tiered rental empire, called the New American Empire. Let us begin with actors, specifi cally the security elites who did the constituting. Security Elites 1.0 The “River families” were born to this spacious sense of tradition and of lei- sure.

    James Kamedulski AmSt 2001 C. Earle April 28, 2014 Secrecy, Traditions, and Cornelliana: A Brief History of the Secret Societies at Cornell University “ ‘Gather ye rosebuds while ye may.’ The Latin term for the sentence is ‘Carpe Diem’.” —William Keating, Dead Poet’s Society Cape Diem, seize the day, became the official motto of the secret society the Dead Poet’s Society of the 1989 classic movie that shares the name. Secret Societies have always been a fascination, a matter of intrigue, and mystery at the Great Schools of the United States. From the boarding schools of New England to the Great Universities (Yale, Cornell, Dartmouth, etc.), secret societies have existed and thrived; their traditions, intricacies, and pastimes have been simultaneously mysterious and omnipresent. Although their lists of powerful alumni are long, their actual influence on campus life is often questioned. What is the point of the secret societies today, and how did they get here? What was their influence, and does it continue to this day? This research paper seeks to answer these questions by going through the history and accomplishments of Cornell’s most influential and famous secret societies: the Quill and Dagger Society and the Sphinx Head Society. The Formations of The Societies on Campus The history of Cornell’s secret societies and their beginnings is the history of the beginnings of social clubs or societies at Cornell. During the mid-1800’s, fraternal organizations began to develop across the American college campuses. The objective of the fraternities, at that time, was more of a promotion of liberal thinking and free thought, a place where students could organize and thrive intellectually.

Keeping Secrets: Student Secret Societies in Historical Context Jennifer Domagal1 Secret societies have long been part of the tapestry of American higher education. They have, however, remained largely unexamined and unspoken of, as if their existence itself is a secret. This article explores the contextual development of secret societies within the academy. The role of secrecy in the development of the first student organizations is outlined and examples of current societies are discussed. As student affairs professionals, it is imperative that we understand this historical context, namely the dangers of institutional paternalism and secrecy, in order to create a current conception of the status and influences of secret societies on our campuses. Secret Societies Officially, extracurricular activities have played a major role in undergraduate student culture at institutions of American higher education since the mid to late 1800’s, when college and university officials finally began to recognize, approve of, and even encourage student involvement outside of a strictly academic arena (Rudolph, 1990).
